We have been talking about Liverpool's midfield but let's digress since the Evertonian chump is in this thread. What about Everton? Who or what do they need?
I think they need to be allowed to play with 12 men on the pitch.
I can recall that they lost an FC Cup final in 1985 to a 10 man manure (it was a very average manure those days) after Peter Reid did a serial diver flying leap when he made contact with Kevin Moran. Moran then got sent off. At that time, the score was 0-0 and guess what? manure scored with 10 men and won the final 1-0.
They couldn't even win with 11 against 10 men and with the ref on their side... hang on a minute, on second thought, they need to be allowed to have 2 keepers who can handle the ball at the same time plus an extra man and the ref on their side. Then they can shrug off the chump tag and really contend for the title!
